That sucks but just be glad you need a piston. I saw some serious machines get eaten up there. That place is Knarly. :w00t:


Or just sell her to me :beer

LOL If the piston actually grenaded then I'd count on needing more then a piston.

i got the picture of the piston. i went and mesured the piston and the jug with a micro meter and the piston was 20 thousandths smaller than the jug was. no wonder it blew up.

Same deal with my R except the piston was cracked in 4 places and did not break. The bore was so worn, the rings criss-crossed each other yet people here constantly HARASS me that I intentionaly blew up my top end.
How is your bottom end after getting that chunk out?
